I've been out of bed for about an hour, have my first coffee next to my keyboard as I type.
My boys have been out of town since Friday afternoon and will be home later today. I need to mow the front lawn and do enough housework to make it look as if I didn't sit on my butt all weekend, which is really what I did :D I finished the second of a pair of socks and started a two-strand scarf (I know, how trendy, but this is mohair not nasty nylon eyelash, so it isn't *as* trendy).
I believe The Buttons have finally made their appearance for my next handspun sweater, so I need to get back now to the spinning. That'll be an endless sweater as I'm spinning a very fine single which as a
3-ply knits up at 28spi. As I have every intention of doing all the spinning before I commence knitting I think it will probably be fall again here before I get the knitting finished.The kitten (13 weeks) seems to have decided his hobby is chewing through yarn, a problem I've not had with the other six cats. I put down the scarf for a bit yesterday, came back and found the smooth strand gnawed through in two places between the work and the ball. I guess I need to get in the habit of keeping my yarn and projects in a cat-proof container. Gnawed yarn is just a pesky problem but I don't need a cat with a straight-line intestinal obstruction (ie, a length of yarn) that requires a surgical intervention.
Ok, coffee is finished, time to aggrevate the neighbors and get after the lawn.
